What we do

We have years of experience of devising short and long-term projects to tackle business objectives and benefit charities and communities.

There are three broad and overlapping categories to our work:

 

Learning & development through community engagement – we tackle people development needs, from simple teambuilding to advanced leadership development, by engaging groups and teams in challenging, real-life projects that benefit charity partners.

 

Tailored business community initiatives – we devise and deliver tailored charity, community and CSR initiatives to address employee engagement, employee reward and other HR needs.

 

Societal learning programmes – we enable companies and their people to identify, understand and engage in the social issues of most relevance to their business through experiential, project-based learning.

 

• Tailored programmes – we run bespoke, rather than off-the-shelf programmes, meaning that activities can be tailored to the needs of both the business and the community organisation.
• Community interaction – we build in genuine interaction with the community – for example, with the service-users or clients of a charity – wherever possible.
• Equal measures of business and community impact – we are strict about emphasising the business objectives and the social objectives, and assessing the business outcomes and social outcomes, in equal measures.
• The rational and the emotional – our experience tells us that our programmes have an emotional impact as well as a rational impact. We touch the heart as well as the mind.
• Value for money in tough times – we help companies use budgets more effectively by tackling HR needs and CSR needs with one budget, not two.
